This makes the services changes notification more accurate by waiting until the changes have taken effect and the server re-started before indicating the change.
* General code cleanup
* `NimBLEServerCallbacks::onMTUChanged` renamed to `NimBLEServerCallbacks::onMTUChange` to be consistent with the client callback.
* `NimBLEServer::getPeerIDInfo` renamed to `NimBLEServer::getPeerInfoByHandle` to better describe it's use.
* Use a std::array to store client connection handles instead of std::vector to reduce memory allocation.
* `NimBLEServer::disconnect` now returns `bool`, true = success, instead of `int` to be consistent with the rest of the library.
Refactor attributes to reduce code duplication and improve maintainability.
* Add attribute base classes to provide common code.
* Add const where possible to functions and parameters.
* `NimBLECharacteristic::notify` no longer takes a `bool is_notification` parameter, instead `indicate()` should be called to send indications.
* `NimBLECharacteristic::indicate` now takes the same parameters as `notify`.
* `NimBLECharacteristicCallbacks` and `NimBLEDescriptorCallbacks` methods now take `const NimBLEConnInfo&` instead of non-const.
* `NimBLECharacteristic::onNotify` callback removed as unnecessary, the library does not call notify without app input.
* `NimBLERemoteCharacteristic::getRemoteService` now returns a `const NimBLERemoteService*` instead of non-const.
* Add NimBLEUUID constructor that takes a reference to `ble_uuid_any_t`.
* `NimBLERemoteService::getCharacteristics` now returns a `const std::vector<NimBLERemoteCharacteristic*>&` instead of non-const `std::vector<NimBLERemoteCharacteristic*>*`
* `NimBLERemoteService::getValue` now returns `NimBLEAttValue` instead of `std::string`
* `NimBLEService::getCharacteristics` now returns a `const std::vector<NimBLECharacteristic*>&` instead of a copy of std::vector<NimBLECharacteristic *>.
* Remove const requirement for NimBLEConnInfo parameter in callbacks.
Const is unnecessary as the data can't be changed by application code.
* Change NimBLERemoteCharacteristic::getRemoteService to return const pointer.
* msbFirst parameter has been removed from constructor as it was unnecessary,
caller should reverse the data first or call the new `reverseByteOrder` method after.
* `getNative` method replaced with `getBase` which returns a read-only pointer to the UUID size underlying.
* Added `reverseByteOrder` method, this will reverse the bytes of the UUID, which can be useful for advertising/logging.
* Added `getValue` method, which returns a read-only `uint8_t` pointer to the UUID value.
* Removed `m_valueSet` member variable, `bitSize()` can be used as a replacement.
* General code cleanup.
IDF 5.2 introduced a new member, cpfd, to the
ble_gatt_chr_def struct. It needs to be initialized
to nullptr in order to avoid accessing uninitialized
memory. By initializing the whole struct, we get
everything initialized in a backward-compatible way.
If a service has been created and started but not yet added to the gatt server then the call to getHandle will result in an invalid handle. This adds a call to set the handle value in the getHandle function.
This is a specialized container class to hold BLE attribute values.
- Removes the use of std::string previously used to store the values.
- Allows for setting/getting/notifying values from std::string, std::vector<uint8_t>, Arduino String, const char*, and uint8_t buffers.
- Has operators retrieve the value as std::string, Arduino String, std::vector<uint8_t>, uint8_t* or char pointers.
- Includes iterators and subscript/random access operator.
- Introduces a max length parameter to the creation of server characteristics/descriptors to limit the size of the memory footprint.
- Nearly Seamless integration with existing code.
- Adds a config option to enable/disable timestamp storage when the value is updated.
- Adds a config option to specify the initial size of the value container if not specified in the constructor.
* Sets macros to allow compiling when Central role is enabled and Observer disabled, or Peripheral enabled and Broadcaster disabled.
* Adds a macro definition for CONFIG_NIMBLE_CPP_IDF to enable different include paths/functionality for IDF / Arduino.
This allows for adding and removing of characteristics and descriptors after initial setup of the server.
When used it will send a service changed notification to all clients.
The changes will not take effect until all clients have disconnected and advertising restarted.
This allows creating instances of services/characteristics and decriptors without
needing to call the parent createX() methods. This allows creation of the attibutes
within a class or other structure and the attributes can be linked to the parent by
calling the parent addX() method.
Additonally this increases the backward compatibility with the original bluedroid library
to further support user migration.
* Add method to get all characteristics of a service
* Added method on NimBLEDescriptor to get the value out as a std::string
* Added methods to get things by handle where UUID could be used already.
* Added helper methods for getting a list of characteristics with a given UUID and service
* Demote the warning log for adding duplicate characteristics to a debug level log.
* Add methods to get services and characteristics using UUID + index
Server: Add onSubscribe() callback for characteristics.
Adds a new method to NimBLECharacteristicCallbacks that gets called when a client
changes it's subscription status.
* Remove NimBLE2902 class.
As the NimBLE2902 class usefulness was only related to callback functions that were replaced
by the NimBLECharacteristicCallbacks:onSubscribe() method this removes the NimBLE2902 class and
moves all subscription handling to NimBLECharacteristic.
* Update documents and examples to reflect this change.
* Add getSubscribedCount() to get the number of subscribed clients.
* Get service handles on server start
* remove service + indicate service changed
* Reset gatt services when no connections active and services changed.
* NimBLEServer::createService can now be used any time and will send service changed
indication if server was already active.
* Add ability to remove advertised serviceUUIDS
* Adds addService() method to server to be allow user to re-add a service previously removed
* Add destructior to NimBLEServer, NimBLEService and NimBLECharacteristic to release allocated resources.
* Use critical sections to access characteristic/descriptor value data.
* Remove unnecessary code
* Create characteristic semaphore only if needed for indications.
* Fix advertising when not broadcasting a service.
This allows NimBLE options in menuconfig to reduce code size based on
the roles selected (scan/advertising/central/peripheral).
Significant code space can be saved by removing unnecessary roles for the application.
